Re: Display Problem on Proliant 5500

Hi

Does the server come up at all after sometime or does it stay like that , if it stays like that there are a few things you need to look,

Maybe try to re-seat all the cardsTry powering on with minimum configuration by removing all other cardsIf all these do not work and if you have support contract it is better to call HP and let them know.It could be a motherboard or powersupply or even memory issue.

Re: Display Problem on Proliant 5500

The 5500 as far as I can remember doesn't give a display for up to a minute as it is intialising other devices, (I may be thinking of the 6500 though) if it has an LCD display on the front look at this and when it displays testing or intialising video then the screen should flick on.

Other reasons that there is no display is that the onboard video is disabled, check your switch settings on the motherboard, or it has an Remote insight board installed therefore the monitor needs connecting to this.
